Dumbfoundead Challenges Lack Of Diversity In Hollywood In New MV “Safe”

Korean-American rapper Dumbfoundead is using his talents to challenge the lack of diversity in Hollywood.

In his new music video “Safe,” Dumbfoundead himself replaces the leading characters from many iconic movies, which were played almost exclusively by white actors. The lyrics to the song pinpoint a lot of problems that Asians in the American entertainment scene face, such as lack of leading roles, being delegated to villainous roles, and not being recognized at awards ceremonies, to name a few.

Some of the movies mentioned in music video include “Braveheart,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” and “Iron Man.” It’s not limited to the big screen, either; TV shows like “Full House,” “The Brady Bunch,” and “Game of Thrones” were also included. To drive his point home, the video ends with Dumbfoundead being replaced by a white actor.
